The mess of this case, not having any sort of venue to handle the case, be an impartial forum to collect and consider evidence submitted by both sides, which all parties can trust to deal objectively with the case, speaks directly to my reasons for participating in the first place: the crypto community needs to implement a dispute resolution system in a blockchain so that those who feel they have been victimized by crypto criminals have a venue that operates internationally, which they can trust based on the consensus of the community, to deal justice, while those who are accused can likewise feel that they can defend themselves in an objective forum that will consider all the evidence in an organized manner to provide due process according to universal principles that have been established over millenia. This process needs to have a low bar of entry, so those in developing economies can afford to access the process to have their disputes resolved, unlike most government justice systems that impose a huge cost of entry in legal fees, time, etc.”
